The Importance of Whole Food Supplements

As a nation, we eat poor quality foods that have been stripped of nutrients.  We do not consume enough fresh fruits and vegetables.  Many of us get our whole grains from instant rice, refined wheat breads, pastas, and cereal.  We eat a tremendous amount of prepackaged, pre-made meals.  One-quarter of Americans eat at fast food restaurants each day.  Americans are overfed and undernourished.

Basically, we eat plenty, but we are still starving.  The foods we eat are not providing our bodies with the nutrition it needs to survive and be healthy.  We are starving our bodies and we are sick as a nation.  We suffer from diabetes, heart attacks, obesity, and more chronic diseases now than we ever have as a nation.

Given proper nutrition, the human body has an amazing ability to heal itself.  If properly fed and given the right nutrients, the human body is designed to repair itself.  To do so, we need to eat a healthier diet, exercise, maintain proper neurological function, and use high quality supplements made from whole foods in order to support what we are still lacking.  Whole food supplements supply our bodies with nutrients that we are not getting from our diet, all the vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, and phytonutrients that foods possess in a way that nature intended, in a whole food form.

Only whole food supplements complete the nutritional gap.

Whole food supplements are made by concentrating foods for use in supplements.  When prepared correctly, they supply a multitude of the plant’s components.  Foods provide nutrients that work synergistically.  They work together to provide you with optimal nutrition for good health.
